Not on ANY in future. I got Semroc laser-cut fins for both of my kits and will either make towers out of Plastruct rod or buy the 3d printed ones.

I got mine for a 16th birthday present. I spent a solid week building it and was shocked when it came out looking fairly close to the face card. I'm enjoying this thread. I have a vintage capsule that I plan to use for an old-school build as soon as I can make myself start gathering parts.
